    Hello I am trying to decide between two routers. The Dlink DIR-855, i have always had great luck with Dlink and the NetGear WDNR4000. Both have the simultanious 2.4 and 5 but I am not sure about the security. I want ddos saftey ect. I am having a problem with NetFlix and I think if i get a 5 ghz router it could fix the problem. Anyone have experience with eathier one like or dislike. Security is very important to me.

    What sort of Netflix problem? I ask because I'm using an old Linksys router purchased in 2004 (WRT54G) and I have no problem with Netflix. Obviously my router doesn't use the 5Ghz band.
    I can stream to two wired and one wireless computer in the house.
    Purchasing a new router might not solve the problem if it is something else.
